Deitel-Java, how to program 6th edition- please help

I am a senior in highschool and just started my Java programming class this past week. As lame as it sounds I am having an extremely hard time not with the programming, but with answering some of the questions in the book. If anyone has possibly had a class that has used this book and knows the answers to some of the questions in the review from ch.1 it would be most helpful. At very least some hints. So far I have found the answers to the majority of the questions but need help with the following:

1.5 B) the process of instucting a computer to solve a problem is called

1.7 A) __ is now used to develop large scale enterprise applications, to enhance the functionallity of web servers, to provide applications for consumer devices and for many other purposes.

B) __ was specifically designed for the .NET platform to enable programmers to migrate easily to .NET.

C) __ Initially became widely known as the development language for the UNIX O.S.

F) __ is used for commercial applications that require precise and efficent manipulation of large amounts of data.

1.8 e) A(n) program can run on multiple platforms.

1.9 Explain the two compilation phases of Java programs.

I am making an effort to find the answers still after posting this but would really appreciate educated guesses at least.

-Thank you

All the questions look like you need to read that chapter carefully.

yeah, I wish it was that easy. the 1.1-1.9 doesnt flow with the way the chapters are labeled. So I could have a question from the 1.1 section in the questions area, and the only answer could be in the 1.7 reading section. Im still reading tho. Im not lazy, I only posted this because im desperate.

Although I haven't heard great things about Deital I think you will find that the answers to the chapter 1 review are indeed in chapter 1.

And those questions are so simple that providing a hint would either be nothing more than providing an answer or would require that you do more work than reading the chapter entails.

Hi the answers are very easy thats what i believe..

Here follows the answers....

.5 B) the process of instucting a computer to solve a problem is called - as Programming

B) __ was specifically designed for the .NET platform to enable programmers to migrate easily to .NET. - C#

C) __ Initially became widely known as the development language for the UNIX O.S. - C Language

F) __ is used for commercial applications that require precise and efficent manipulation of large amounts of data. - COBOL

1.8 e) A(n) program can run on multiple platforms. - Platform independant

1.9 Explain the two compilation phases of Java programs.

ByteCode Compilation and JIT(Just In Time)

May not be 100% correct but this is what I got from ch1.

I don't believe anyone doubted that the answers were easy.

However it was very likely that it was homework and you just provided all of the answers (although the poster might have to wonder if you provided the correct answers.)

Well, a little info in his favor...I am currently a jr. in college and have taken advanced java, however I skipped "Intro to Java" and I am now having to backtrack and take it. BUT, long story short, I am using the same book he is andgiven the information they have provided, I couldn't find the answer to 1.9 anywhere in it. Textbooks are never perfect.

So ease up a little, if he's being lazy it will catch up with him later.
